After 1 month using Treo 650, one thing that bother me is email client, VersaMail. Do not misconceive, it’s still work probably and well also. However, There have some dissatified function that make me looking for another client, including missing detach attachment function to free up main memory, irritating screen when enable receive only new message function, and re-receive deleted message. After that I found another popular palm email client, SnapperMail, so I have to use both programs for a week to find out which one is better..

That’s a tough decision because there don’t have a perfect program. Each program has advantages and disadvantages. Let’s look at some example that I can found.

disadvantage:— can’t detach attachments. — no card friendly function — always re-receive deleted mail — receive only new mail function, such as less than a week, doesn’t make any sense. Because it always show awkward popup “There are a new mail but it’s too old.” For what? — slow save attach to card — doesn’t have save to handheld function—into other program.

SnapperMailadvantage:— detach attachment function — smart receive mail function. No annoyed alert like versamail. — friendly with card storage! — has a file manager on its own, easy to find an attachment. — Has a screen to show progression of every operation — useful receive function; only Message Text or Entire Message or Tag to receive. — Disable all stylesheet.
